- How to Read a Study Record
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide, together with antithymocyte globulin before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells. Giving chemotherapy before or after transplant also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer and abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well stem cell transplant works in treating patients with hematological cancer or other disorders.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Graft Versus Host Disease Leukemia Lymphoma Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm Precancerous Condition |
Biological: anti-thymocyte globulin Drug: busulfan Drug: cyclophosphamide Drug: cyclosporine Drug: fludarabine phosphate Drug: mycophenolate mofetil Procedure: nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation |
Phase 2 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Non-Randomized Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | Allograft of Hematopoietic Stem Cells With Reduced-intensity Conditioning From a HLA-haploidentical Family Donor: Phase II Study of Combined Immunosuppression Before and After Transplantation |
- Incidence of graft acceptance [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Estimated Enrollment: | 50 |
Study Start Date: | January 2008 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | January 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
- Evaluate the incidence of graft acceptance in patients with hematological disorders treated with combined immunosuppression before and after HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
- Evaluate efficacy of this regimen in these patients.
- Evaluate toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
- Assess survival of patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
- Reduced-intensity conditioning: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate IV on days -6 to -1, busulfan IV on days -6 to -5, and anti-thymocyte globulin IV on days -4 to -1.
- Transplantation: Patients undergo transplantation of donor hematopoietic stem cells on day 0. Patients also receive cyclophosphamide IV on day 3 and filgrastim (G-CSF) beginning on day 4 and continuing until blood counts recover.
- Immunosuppression: Patients receive cyclosporine IV beginning on day -2 and continuing for 6 months and mycophenolate mofetil 4 times a day on days 4-84.

With 5 bolts (the SDs have 8 or more if I'm seeing them correctly) it is an FT. The intake manifold should extend under the valve covers. If so, FT for sure. I take it you know the FE motor, here is a pic of the SD motor:
Redirect Notice
330, 361 and 391 were the sizes. The 330 was a small bore (3.8something, I can't recall) with a 3.50 stroke. 361 was same as a 360, 4.05 x 3.50 and the 391 was the same as a 390--4.05 x 3.78. The 361 and 391 were also designated 359 or 389 late in their runs. These were detuned (even more detuned) smog motors.
Why Ford would designate different CID's for the same bore and stroke motors (also done with the 352 FE, a 4 x 3.50 vs. the 351C, W & M, all 4 x 3.50 motors) is anyone's guess. As a famous motorist in LA said once, "Beats me!!!!"

In a JAMA study released today, Jeremy Kahn, MD, MS, assistant professor of Pulmonary Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and colleagues highlight the increasing use of long-term acute care facilities. From 1997 to 2006, the number of long-term acute care hospitals doubled, the number of Medicare patients who were transferred to a long-term acute care hospital after a critical illness tripled, and the 1 year survival for these high-risk patients was poor.
Researchers concluded that more research should be done to guide decision making about transfers to long-term acute care facilities and identify best practices to maximize survival and control costs for this high-risk patient group.

Detroit Lions
From JetsWiki
Revision as of 15:02, 10 January 2008 by PanzerDivisionMarduk-75 (Talk | contribs)
The Detroit Lions play in the NFC North. Originally based in Portsmouth, Ohio and called the Portsmouth Spartans, the team began play in 1929 as an independent professional team , one of many such teams in the Ohio and Scioto River valleys. For the 1930 season, the Spartans formally joined the National Football League as the other area independents folded because of the Great Depression. Despite success within the NFL, they could not survive in Portsmouth, then the NFL's smallest city. The team was purchased and moved to Detroit for the 1934 season.
The Lions have won four pre-Super Bowl NFL Championships, the last in 1957, but have yet to qualify for the modern day Super Bowl. Since 1957, the team has only won a single playoff game, in 1991. These day s the team play their home games in Ford Field, Detroit.

Mount Dade is one of the high peaks in the Mount Abbot Group, on the Sierra crest between Mount Abbot and Bear Creek Spire, at the head of Rock Creek Canyon. The Little Lakes Valley at the head of the canyon is is one of the most picturesque regions of the Sierra Nevada, yet it is relatively easy to reach. The high summer trailhead at Mosquito Flat (10,300 feet) offers short approach routes to these magnificent peaks.Writing many years ago, Norman Clyde said that Mount Dade is "a handsome mountain as one looks up the Rock Creek Basin. To the north it breaks away in sheer cliffs at whose base lies a small glacier. It has been ascended only a few times, although the view from its summit is a very good one." Although it has been climbed a fair number of times since then, the views are still spectacular from the summit. Fortunately, Mount Dade is one of the easiest peaks in this area, offering a challenging but doable class 2 route up its south slope. This route involves climbing the famous Hourglass Couloir which can be choked with ice even in late summer. Mount Dade is also a popular winter mountaineering peak, with excellent skiing terrain from the very top down its moderate south slopes, followed by the 1,000 foot, 40 degree slope of the Hourglass.
Getting There
The easiest trailhead is at Mosquito Flat (elevation 10300 feet), at the end of Rock Creek Road which branches from Highway 395 between Mammoth Lakes and Bishop. Rock Creek Road is about 15 miles from Mammoth Lakes, paved all the way to Mosquito Flat for about 12 miles. Mosquito Flat is the highest trailhead in Sierra Nevada with an elevation of 10300 ft. This offers short, easy approach to a multitude of high peaks.For hikers looking for solitude and ease of permit acquisition during popular summer weekends, go to the Pine Creek trailhead (elevation 7000 feet), at the end of Pine Creek Road which branches off Hwy 395 a few miles south. Follow trail to Morgan Pass, which leads into the Rock Creek drainage from the south. Caution: although the length of approach is only about 5 miles longer, you will have to overcome 3000 feet extra of elevation gain, due to Pine Creek's low trailhead. The steep-walled Pine Creek canyon is very avalanche-prone in winter.
Red Tape
Backcountry camping requires a free permit in the John Muir Wilderness, which encompasses the entire area. No campfires are allowed. Permits can be obtained at the National Forest ranger station in Bishop on Main Street (US-395), or the ranger station in Mammoth Lakes on Highway 203 east of town. Since the permits are on a quota system in summer, it can be difficult to get on popular summer weekends. Advance reservation of wilderness permits is a good idea (fee charged).Rock Creek Road is closed for winter season from October to May.

Best constructed phone should go to Lumia 920, design is no less impressive than iPhone and best build quality so far, and it costs $450 off contract instead of $649 at the least. 5+ years of owning Apple products and I've stopped associating Apple with something like BMW a long time ago. Used to think that way too ... when I was a n00b.

Again, this is incorrect. Samsung is just as capable of monitoring their channel inventory as Apple. They simply choose not to report it.

I think in the quarter 4, S3 and note 2 together will have higher sales thane iPhone 5/4S for the following reasons:
1. Samsung sells their phones to all carriers in all countries. Apple does not sell the iPhone 5 the same way. E.g., if you are one of the 30 million T-mobile customer you can not buy an iPhone 5. 2. Samsung prices it products to suit the GDP PPP in each country. So an S3 phone will be cheaper in some developing countries with reduced features. 3. Samsung has manufacturing in many more countries. Apple manufactures only in Brazil and China. Import duties are higher in many countries and this increases the imported cost of iPhones. 4. There are few Apps in Android system designed just US specific like passport or Siri etc. 5. Samsung resorts to heavy discounting to move their product. For example on 16 and 17th Samsung will be offering 0 down payment for S3. Apple has fixed price at all wireless providers. 6. Apple continues to suffer from very low yield of iPhone 5 at Foxcon. Apple has put all its eggs in the Foxcon basket. It would be prudent to consider other countries for manufacturing as Samsung does. 7. Apple needs to hire some design for manufacturing experts so that production yields improve. |

One of my 6 Android devices was a relatively nice Samsung phone on TMO, running ICS. But once I started using it I realized that TMO and Yahoo had signed a back room deal that forced me to keep certain Yahoo apps on the phone that I could not uninstall. Sure, I could have rooted it (once a root came out for that particular phone). But I don't want to spend all of my life rooting phones to make them do what I want. I want to use my phone, not spend my nights hacking it. |

Not exactly accurate. Apple phones are sold/discounted all around the world.
And if a retailer sells a phone at a loss - it's still a phone sold (samsung gets paid). I'm not discounting whether or not Samsung might offer incentives. Just like I'm not discounting the fact that Apple has tight deals with carriers that force their customers (with exceptions) to wait until their contract is either over or a date is approved by Apple before allowing a new (non-iPhone) subsidized phone. This practice is not done by any Android or other platform based phone. |

I tend to buy the most popular phone not to be popular but because support is just great, apps, accessories etc etc etc.
What i find amazing is that the iphone still wins out. Old iphone vs new phone samsung phone. Cheap Samsung phone vs expensive iphone. I think they are both great phones and either is fine and i'm glad to see samsung again making their own design decisions both from software and hardware they no longer look like a copycat. So why did i still get an iphone 5, well it still comes down to the whole package and ecosystem, samsung still don't quite get it and sony seem to be starting to but they would need to invest a lot more R&D to catch up to the value behind the phone. I think it's like comparing silver with white gold, both are good but there is value in paying more. |

Galaxy SIII, Galaxy SII, Galaxy Note I, Galaxy Note II versus iPhone 3GS, iPhone4, iPhone4S, iPhone5. That is, we would be comparing Samsung flagship smartphones to Apple smartphones currently being offered worldwide. P.S. #1: Don't tell me the Note is in another category because it's not. I use my note as my main smartphone, it fits perfectly into my pocket and I see a lot of people having it as a phone. P.S. #2: An unlocked 3GS costs the same as an unlocked Galaxy II Lite in Brazil, so it would probably fair to get rid of this model in the comparison. P.S. #3: the stats shown in this posts are meaningless... is much more like comparing Apples and Kiwis.

90% of sales (certainly exaggerated) may still be iPhone 5. Because your looking at 1 year into a 3 year cycle of 4S sales, so it's not peak, but it's probably steady. Remember the 4 still sells. So again, while it may seem like everyone on this board wants the latest and greatest (though you do see people saying they chose the 4S after the 5 launch), there is no evidence that there is a significant collapse in 4S sales after the 5. Quote:
As the 4S has been in production for a while their channel inventory will be at capacity, whereas Samsung's will have be ramping up (the reseller may be overramped, but this is not Samsung's channel). Thus, Samsung's proportion of sold to in channel will be higher. It may well be that reseller's are overstocked on GS3s vs. iPhone 4Ss. But again, iphone holds additional stock because it is also a reseller. So in that quarter, in my view, evidence points to the Gs3 slightly outperforming the 4S. ---------- Quote:

I think the real difference is that people are flocking to the Samsung more because of it's specs rather than the logo. So I think that makes a big difference, though I'm sure many are still stupid people.
15.5" Vaio: 2.4Ghz Core i5, 4gb of Ram, Radeon 5470 512mb $860 Aug/2010. A mac with similar specs, and a weaker GPU would have cost me around a $1,000 extra, so I've been Apple free since Aug 2010. |

Samsung is likely building up channel inventory, while Apple is decreasing channel inventory for the iPhone 4S. That means Samsung is selling less than it ships and Apple is selling more than it ships. Quote:

Nov 9, 2012, 02:00 PM | #273 | |
Apple is more confusing. It ships to re-sellers and itself. So even if both companies have a similar channel policy, Apple will be sitting on more longer, because many phones don't leave Apple's inventory until it gets to the consumer. You might be right, i just don't buy that demand has changed all that much in the 4S over last quarter. There is still 2 years left in this product and the price just dropped, so that should push demand up a bit in the short run. I'm mainly just saying without knowing additional details on the numbers, you can't really flavor the shipping numbers because the exact opposite conclusion could be drawn (i.e. Samsung can't catch up to reseller demand and Apple could have overestimated 4S sales and have too much shipped and sitting in their stores). In sum, it's apples to apples unless there is clear evidence that it isn't. Last edited by pacalis; Nov 9, 2012 at 02:06 PM. |

If you mean Apple's definition, "sold" includes items paid for by a retailer and in the process of being shipped to them. See their SEC filing below. The moment an item is shipped to a retailer, it's counted as revenue. They do not count shipping to their own stores, though. Quote:

Grant of Capital Habeas Petition Reversed
In Wilson v. Corcoran, No. 10-91, the Court vacated the court of appeals' grant of defendant's request for habeas relief from his capital murder conviction where federal courts may not issue writs of habeas corpus to state prisoners whose confinement does not violate federal law, and here, the court of appeals granted the writ to defendant without finding such a violation.
As the court wrote: "In 1997, respondent Joseph Corcoran shot and killed four men, including his brother and his sister's fiance. An Indiana jury found him guilty of four counts of murder, found the statutory aggravating circumstance of multiple murders, and unanimously recommended capital punishment. The trial judge agreed and sentenced respondent to death."

In Reply to: ooooooooold 4 qt presto posted by chroma2424 on March 19, 2003 at 1:56 pm:
I have a Presto 4qt in the box that I bought on ebay from a dealer who insisted in his pre-purchase correspondence that it was stainless steel (it's not). It doesn't have the gauge/jiggler and it's the one Presto gauge that's $16 to replace (vs. $3 for all the other models - figures!) so it's not worth it to me to buy parts to sell it to someone else. He doesn't seem to want it back, so if you want the gasket and the instructions, you can have them for the cost of shipping. If you want the gasket (new), measure the diameter of your pot lid so I can be sure they are the same diameter. Vicki in Va.

A Random Bowl of Chicken Porridge
Here was a bowl of chicken porridge from a random hawker stall. It was probably more properly described as porridge topped with some leftover scraps of chicken, but it did the same job once mixed up.

If you're ever in the area, go to Upper Thomson's A1 (I think that's what they're called) porridge restaurant. It's a green logo, the place is along the same stretch as the Prata House, and Meng's kitchen (bak chor mee).
They've got some really good porridge there and chinese hot plate dishes. Plus they close at 3AM. - October 01, 2010 7:01 AM

step | purpose | What you have to do |
setup | have your own data_rep on your account. Follow the setup advice. I suggest that you do your simulation in a directory like .../data_rep/obs/my_simulation/ to have the same directory structure as for real data. | |
setenv COMMONLOGFILE mylog.txt | define a logfile | If you want to have a log file, set it now. To unset it later just type "unsetenv COMMONLOGFILE" |
mkdir spi | create output directory | all your output files will be located in the spi/ subdirectory |
spi_osim | simulation and analysis | This script does the sky simulation and the analysis by spiros and spiskymax. Please check carefully the parameters you use. You can start using this parameter file. spi_osim calls gensky, os_pdefgen, spisimprep, spi_allgti, spidead, spiback, and (optional) performs the analysis using spiros and/or spiskymax. No stepping back in the analysis is possible. Start from scratch again, in case the processing fails. |
spi_dsp_display spi_spectral_display |
use these tools to display the detector spectra and the spiros output spectra. Note: the input of an observation group will not work (as the observation group created by the simulation is not fully standard), thus give the DOLs of the individual files you want to display. | |
XSPEC | spectral fitting | You can use SPIROS output spectra inside XSPEC. You find a detailed description here. Note that there has no off-diagonal response applied in the simulation, so you should also apply a diagonal response inside XSPEC. After following the instructions how to prepare the spectra for XSPEC use the diagrsp command inside XSPEC. |
In case you prefer to run all single steps manually, please follow this procedure:
step | purpose | What you have to do |
gensky | simulate sky images | create SPI.-SKY.-IMA-IDX and attached images for a defined number of sources and sky. Use as an example this gensky.par parameter file. |
os_pdefgen | pointing definition | Use as an example this os_pdefgen.par parameter file. |
mkdir spi | Create output directory | |
spisimprep | create additional files needed. Use as an example this spisimprep.par parameter file. You need spisimprep 3.0 to perform this step. | |
spidead | dead time | create a dead time file. In the parameter file you have to set the deadtimecorrection value (i.e. the fraction of time the detector was alive) to a fixed value (e.g. 1.0). Otherwise spidead will exit with an error. |
spiback | background | create a background file. Don't use the SCHK input functionality, i.e. use only fixed background models (constant, sine, cosine...). |
spiskycnv | skymap convolution | Use as an example this spiskycnv.par parameter file. Make sure that you use parameter: OG_or_ATTI,s,h,"PNT",,,"" |
spiros | source reconstruction | The latest version of spiros should run without problem on the output of the simulation. For the different ways of using spiros, look into the spiros user manual |
spiskymax | image reconstruction | The latest version of spiskymax should run without problem on the output of the simulation. For the questions about the usage, look into the spiskymax user manual |

text: Americans consume 50% more sodium than recommended. High sodium consumption raises blood pressure which is a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke–the nation's first and third leading causes of death. Most Americans eat more than double the amount of salt recommended by experts. More than 90 percent of salt we eat comes from places other than the salt shaker: in canned goods like soup and packaged foods like frozen dinners and restaurant foods. It's also hiding in breads and cereals. To help lower blood pressure, experts recommend that people consume fewer than 2,400 milligrams of sodium a day—about the amount found in a teaspoon of salt. People with high blood pressure should aim for 1,500 milligrams. Decreasing sodium intake could prevent thousands of deaths annually. Nearly 400,000 deaths each year are attributed to high blood pressure. The DASH eating plan (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) is a simple heart healthy diet that can help prevent or lower high blood pressure. "When salt intake is reduced, blood pressure begins decreasing within weeks on average," says James M. Parker, MD, of North Oaks Cardiology Clinic, who recommends choosing a heart healthy diet approach, enjoying more fresh fruits and vegetables and looking for low-sodium alternatives. This diet is LOW in sodium, cholesterol, saturated and total fat, and HIGH in fruits and vegetables, fiber, potassium and low-fat dairy products. DASH also lowers risk of several types of cancer, heart disease, stroke, heart failure, kidney stones and development of diabetes. It also features menus with whole grains, fish, poultry and nuts, and offers limited portions of red meats, sweets and sugary beverages. The DASH diet is a healthy plan-plus it's designed for the whole family. For more information on the DASH diet, see www.nhlbi.nih.gov. Choose a Heart Healthy Diet. Making other lifestyle changes, like more physical activity while on the DASH eating plan, gives you the biggest benefits. Eating less sodium may prevent, lower and control blood pressure. If you are 40 years of age or older, African-American or have high-blood pressure, you should consider a diet with less sodium to reduce your risk of heart-related problems. Tasty Stand-Ins For Salt Keep your kitchen stocked with the following ingredients to make it easier to plan and prepare meals. Add Flavor with Herbs and Spices (fresh and dried): • Basil • Ground black pepper • Cayenne pepper • Chili powder • Cilantro • Cinnamon • Coriander • Crushed red pepper • Cumin • Garlic • Ginger • Mint • Nutmeg • Oregano • Paprika/smoked paprika • Parsley • Rosemary • Salt-free seasoning mix • Tarragon • Thyme.

Wearing a Turban as a Fashion Statement: Fashion Do or Don't?

Various styles of turbans are worn all over the world and they are usually worn for religious reasons. In the 60s and 70s however, celebrities like Joan Crawford, Faye Dunaway and Elizabeth Taylor made it glamorous to wear a turban, much to the dismay of some religious groups.
Since then, they haven't been as trendy, which is why fashion bloggers were surprised to see Eva Mendes wearing one at the premiere for The Place Beyond the Pines. I still think Ryan Gosling is her best accessory... but what do you think of her look? Is wearing a turban a fashion do... or don't?

(*) white -- ultra-religious
(*) orange -- angry about something
(*) any other colour except pink -- preference-only of wearer

FBI denies file exposing nuclear secrets theft
The FBI has been accused of covering up a file detailing government dealings with a network stealing nuclear secrets
THE FBI has been accused of covering up a key case file detailing evidence against corrupt government officials and their dealings with a network stealing nuclear secrets.
The assertion follows allegations made in The Sunday Times two weeks ago by Sibel Edmonds, an FBI whistleblower, who worked on the agency's investigation of the network.
Edmonds, a 37-year-old former Turkish language translator, listened into hundreds of sensitive intercepted conversations while based at the agency's Washington field office.
She says the FBI was investigating a Turkish and Israeli-run network that paid high-ranking American officials to steal nuclear weapons secrets. These were then sold on the international black market to countries such as Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

For sale: West's deadly nuclear secrets
One of the documents relating to the case was marked 203A-WF-210023. Last week, however, the FBI responded to a freedom of information request for a file of exactly the same number by claiming that it did not exist. But The Sunday Times has obtained a document signed by an FBI official showing the existence of the file.
Edmonds believes the crucial file is being deliberately covered up by the FBI because its contents are explosive. She accuses the agency of an "outright lie".
"I can tell you that that file and the operations it refers to did exist from 1996 to February 2002. The file refers to the counterintelligence programme that the Department of Justice has declared to be a state secret to protect sensitive diplomatic relations," she said.
The freedom of information request had not been initiated by Edmonds. It was made quite separately by an American human rights group called the Liberty Coalition, acting on a tip-off it received from an anonymous correspondent.
The letter says: "You may wish to request pertinent audio tapes and documents under FOIA from the Department of Justice, FBI-HQ and the FBI Washington field office."
It then makes a series of allegations about the contents of the file - many of which corroborate the information that Edmonds later made public.
Edmonds had told this newspaper that members of the Turkish political and diplomatic community in the US had been actively acquiring nuclear secrets. They often acted as a conduit, she said, for Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan's spy agency, because they attracted less suspicion.
She claimed corrupt government officials helped the network, and venues such as the American-Turkish Council (ATC) in Washington were used as drop-off points.
The anonymous letter names a high-level government official who was allegedly secretly recorded speaking to an official at the Turkish embassy between August and December 2001.
It claims the government official warned a Turkish member of the network that they should not deal with a company called Brewster Jennings because it was a CIA front company investigating the nuclear black market. The official's warning came two years before Brewster Jennings was publicly outed when one of its staff, Valerie Plame, was revealed to be a CIA agent in a case that became a cause celebre in the US.
The letter also makes reference to wiretaps of Turkish "targets" talking to ISI intelligence agents at the Pakistani embassy in Washington and recordings of "operatives" at the ATC.
Edmonds is the subject of a number of state secret gags preventing her from talking further about the investigation she witnessed.
"I cannot discuss the details considering the gag orders," she said, "but I reported all these activities to the US Congress, the inspector general of the justice department and the 9/11 commission. I told them all about what was contained in this case file number, which the FBI is now denying exists.
"This gag was invoked not to protect sensitive diplomatic relations but criminal activities involving US officials who were endangering US national security."

Sound (Piopiotahi in Māori) (Pop: 80) is a fjord carved by
glacial action in the south west of New Zealand's
South Island, within Fiordland National
Park and the Te Wahipounamu World Heritage site. It has been judged the
world's top travel destination in an international survey and is acclaimed
as New Zealand's most famous tourist destination. The drive to Milford Sound
itself passes through unspoiled mountain landscapes before entering the
1.2 km Homer Tunnel which emerges into rain-forest-carpeted canyons that
descend to the sound. The winding mountain road, while of high standards, is
very prone to avalanches and closures during the winter half of the year. An underwater tourist observatory found in one of the bays of the sound provides viewing of black coral, usually only found in much deeper waters. A dark surface layer of fresh water, stained by tannins from the surrounding forest, allows the corals to grow close to the surface here Like the rest of Fiordland, Milford Sound receives a lot of rain. Indeed, some tour operators argue that the sound is best seen on a rainy day as all the waterfalls can be seen in their full glory. Many recommend seeing it during a sunny day and in the rain to see both worlds as they are both very different and amazing. When visiting Milford Sound and its natural beauty, do not forget insect repellent due to sand flies in the late afternoon early evening and a raincoat as weather can change without notice There are daily schedule
coach and bus services to Milford Sound from Queenstown, Te Anau, Te Anau Downs
and The Divide (The end of the Routeburn Track). Also scenic flights by
light aircraft and helicopter tours to and from Milford Sound Airport to Te
Anau and Queenstown.. There are no passenger train services from Milford Sound to Queenstown, Te Anau, Invercargill, Dunedin, Mt Cook or Christchurch. |

Philips Reaura - Final Update
6 comments:
There are loads of rejuvenating and anti aging treatment kits like this around at the moment, there are also a few for acne scarring that I've heard work pretty well. One of the things I've noticed works quite well (I'm 23 so just starting out with my anti-aging preventative skincare methods!) is the TheBalm Timebalm founation range from GlitterStore. I honestly think you can avoid any early aging signs by using little bits and pieces like this in your day to day skincare routine.
ReplyDeleteThanks for giving us the final verdict. I've always been intrigued whether these type of skin rejuvenation machines do work and it's re-assuring that though you are outside the target age range, your skin has experienced the benefits. Do you know if there are any side effects of the lasers with this kind of beauty treatment?

Consultant denies killing patient
Published 21/01/2013 | 10:20
A hospital consultant has denied the manslaughter of a patient.
David Sellu, 66, a colorectal surgeon, of Hillingdon, west London, pleaded not guilty to killing James Joseph Hughes, 66, at the private Churchill Clementine Hospital in Harrow, north London, in February 2010.
Mr Hughes had travelled from his home in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, for a knee replacement, but collapsed and died a week later after complaining of stomach pains.
It is alleged that a tear in his bowel should have been treated before it turned septic and caused his death.
Sellu also pleaded not guilty to perjury alleged to have occurred at an inquest into Mr Hughes's death.
He was remanded in custody to face trial on a date to be fixed in the autumn before Mr Justice Nicol.

The Appraisal Foundation - USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice) defines an appraisal as "The act or process of developing an opinion of value." This valuation is a determination of your property's market value - what it will likely sell for on the open market. So how is this "valuation" determined? Why does the idea of getting an "opinion of value" create so much apprehension about the process? What can you do to make your home appraise better, if anything? What do you do if your home doesn't appraise well? Below are commonly asked questions that hopefully will give some clarity about home appraisals.
What is a home appraisal? A home appraisal is a survey of a home by a professional for their opinion of the property market value. In most cases an appraisal is done for a bank when a home is being approved for a loan for the home buyer. The home appraisal is a detailed report that looks at such items as the condition of the home, the neighborhood, what similar homes are selling for, and how quickly similar homes sell (to name a few). The appraisal may be a sales comparison or a cost/replacement opinion of value. There is also an income appraisal, but this is done primarily with commercial properties. The sales comparison will look at other properties in your neighborhood and what they are selling for and then figure how they compare to your home. With a cost/replacement opinion of value the appraiser is looking at what it would cost to replace the home if destroyed; this is more commonly used for new homes. Important Note: An appraisal is not a home inspection! Appraisers only look for major concerns, they do not examine the home's full condition (i.e. examine the roof, appliances, etc.). For this reason a home inspection should still be requested by the home buyer before purchasing the home.
Who is an appraiser? Appraisers are licensed by individual states and are held to strict ethical standards. Appraisers are the third party whose purpose is to give their opinion of the market value of a home. Ideally the appraiser should not be connected with anyone involved with the home transaction.
Who picks the appraiser? When an offer is made on the house the appraiser will normally be determined by the lender. The lender may have their own appraiser or contract with an independent party. Sometimes the bank will allow the seller to choose an appraiser, but only when that appraiser is already well known to them.
Can the seller get their own appraisal done? Yes. The home seller may commission their own appraisal before selling the property to determine cost. However, this will cost anywhere from $300-500 and the bank most likely will not accept this appraisal but request another to be done by their own contact.
If not by appraisal, how do I set the price for my home? Home sellers can set the price of their home with the help of a REALTOR(r) using a comparative market analysis (CMA); the CMA is not a substitute for an appraisal but will give a good idea on setting an asking price (usually 5-10% more than the market price for your area).
How can you prepare your home for appraisal? Prepare for your home appraisal like you would for a home sale. You are in essence re-selling your home. Make sure all the maintenance you can do is done; this includes clearing and trimming the yard to painting the house - hopefully most of this was already done for the sale and should at most need only a minor touch up. Be polite to the appraiser and give them full access to your home; work with them not against. Inform the appraiser of your home improvements. Let them know about the new windows, new floors, the finished basement, etc. And finally, don't be caught off guard. Do your homework! Know what similar homes are selling for in your neighborhood. This is something that should be done before setting your selling price. But in case your home has been on the market for a month or two, keep your research current. Let the appraiser know about similar homes and what they have sold for, especially if you know why a particular home that is like yours sold for less, let them know why your house is different.
What if the appraisal is low? An appraisal that comes in lower then the asking price can jeopardize the loan and ultimately the sale. The lender will generally only loan up to 80% of the appraisers opinion of the home's value. The most common result is that the seller can lower their asking price. Or the seller and buyer can negotiate and meet at a price in-between. If the buyer still wants the home badly enough, they may put more money down; but this may still not guarantee their loan as the lender will still view it as negative equity. The final option is to dispute the appraisal. Before disputing with an appraisal, do your homework. Look at the homes in your community that have sold in the last 6 months and see what the differences are that may make your home more valuable. Perhaps there is a sale that the appraiser missed, perhaps other homes do not have the renovations and improvements you have done, perhaps the appraiser is not familiar with your type of home or neighborhood, etc. Building this case may be a good idea even before the appraisal. This will prevent you from getting rushed by the timeline after the appraisal is done. This is something you can ask for your REALTOR(r) to help with as they usually have a vast knowledge of your market area. Once you have the case, present it to the lender. They will likely get a new appraiser or request the same appraiser to reconsider it. If you do not want the same appraiser, make sure to specify this and ask for a second opinion.
What other aspects of the appraisal can hurt the loan? By in far, the appraisers opinion of the home's value being lower than the asking price is the most detrimental. However, other factors may cause the lender to refuse the loan or require further contract negotiations. These concerns would result from property conditions that may require the home buyer to do more investing in the property to keep it valuable, such as upkeep on a private road. Your REALTOR(r) can help you with these types of objections and altering the contract to meet the lenders concerns.
The above is an introduction to answer some basic questions about the appraisal process. Please look at the links to the left for more detailed information. Now, if you are interested in what your home may be worth, check out Zillow for fun! This online program uses Google Maps to show what homes in your neighborhood are selling for or may be worth. Of course, I would suggest caution as the opinion of value given for most homes is rather high: http://zillow.com/ Happy appraising!

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
- A laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is surgery done for obese people to help them lose weight. Obesity is when your body has much more weight from fat than it needs. Having too much body fat puts you at a higher risk of having medical problems, such as diabetes and heart disease. Obesity is a long-lasting problem that may get worse over time. Using your height and weight, your caregiver will learn your body mass index (BMI). Your caregiver uses this measurement to see if you are overweight. You are obese if your BMI is between 30 and 39. A BMI of 40 or more means that you are morbidly (very) obese.
- LSG is commonly done as a first surgery before a more involved weight-loss surgery can be done. During LSG, a portion of the stomach is removed so that the remaining stomach forms a small tube. Once the stomach is made smaller, you will feel full faster and have a decreased desire for food. LSG also decreases the amount of hormones (body chemicals) in your stomach that increase your appetite. Having LSG will help you lose weight, and you may have more energy. Losing weight may decrease your risk of getting heart problems, diabetes, and certain other diseases.
Take your medicine as directed.
Call your primary healthcare provider if you think your medicine is not helping or if you have side effects. Tell him if you are allergic to any medicine. Keep a list of the medicines, vitamins, and herbs you take. Include the amounts, and when and why you take them. Bring the list or the pill bottles to follow-up visits. Carry your medicine list with you in case of an emergency.
- Pain medicine: You may need medicine to take away or decrease pain.
- Learn how to take your medicine. Ask what medicine and how much you should take. Be sure you know how, when, and how often to take it.
- Do not wait until the pain is severe before you take your medicine. Tell caregivers if your pain does not decrease.
- Pain medicine can make you dizzy or sleepy. Prevent falls by calling someone when you get out of bed or if you need help.
- Learn how to take your medicine. Ask what medicine and how much you should take. Be sure you know how, when, and how often to take it.
- Proton pump inhibitor: This medicine helps decrease the amount of acid that your stomach makes and helps prevent heartburn.
Follow-up visit:
Ask your caregiver when to return for follow-up visits. You will need to talk with your caregiver about your diet and nutrition. You may need blood taken for tests during your visits. Keep all appointments. Write down any questions you may have. This way you will remember to ask these questions during your next visit.
Eat a healthy diet:
You will need to eat a diet low in calories and fat and high in protein. Good protein foods are meat, poultry (chicken and turkey), fish, eggs, nuts, and legumes (peas and beans). Avoid chewy meats because they may be harder for your stomach to digest. Dairy products, such as milk and yogurt, are also good sources of protein. If you are on a pureed (chopped up) diet, you may need to puree your food in a blender or food processor. Eat slowly, and chew your food well before swallowing.
Take a multivitamin:
Take a daily multivitamin as ordered by your caregiver. Ask your caregiver which multivitamin is best for you.
Exercise daily:
Daily exercise can help you burn extra calories and lose weight. Exercising makes the heart stronger, lowers blood pressure, and helps keep you healthy. It is best to start exercising slowly and do more as you get stronger. Do not start an exercise program until you talk with your caregiver first. Together you can plan the best exercise program for you.
Wound care:
Ask your caregiver for information about how to care for your wounds and when to return to have your stitches removed.
- You have nausea (upset stomach) or vomiting (throwing up).
- You have a fever.
- You have new or increased heartburn (burning feeling in your chest or throat).
- You have questions or concerns about your surgery, medicine, or care.
- You have new or increased abdominal pain.
- You have a high fever and shaking chills.
- Your wounds are draining pus (fluid) or look red or swollen. They may feel warm, painful, or tender (painful when touched).
- You have chest pain or trouble breathing that is getting worse over time.
- Your arm or leg feels warm, tender, and painful. It may look swollen and red.
- You suddenly feel lightheaded and have trouble breathing.
- You have new and sudden chest pain. You may have more pain when you take deep breaths or cough. You may cough up blood.
